[@jerrymylove1754]

Seems like the students, teachers, faculty, staff, and the parents can’t do math.

[@toddserrano]

The teachers are likely failing the students and marking the students absent while the principals and superintendents are overriding the teachers.

[@KenKnucklesKnuckDogg]

@@toddserrano That is probably exactly what's happening

[@maskedmarvel]

Wow some actual journalism

“Proud Parent of an F Student and Convict!” 😂😂😂

blax

[@johnmoore4714]

Teachers pressured to passed students. I'm not blaming the teachers

[@toddserrano]

It's often not the teachers who are passing the students at all, but rather the administrators and principals are overriding the teachers.

[@laglendareed8086]

And telling them to pass the students. “no child left behind” is the problem because it affects the minority students.

[@horacecomegna335]

@@laglendareed8086Because they’re not as smart as other students unfortunately.

[@bmorecareful3723]

It ain’t just that school gtfoh

[@antonio_g237]

LMAO.... Why you mad? It should not be any schools! But you ready to whine and cry "RACISM!" Cause you don't like a white man reporting on this TRAGEDY in Education.

My son was in Baltimore city central booking detention center for two months while receiving A’s, some D’s and a bunch of Tarde‘s along with your child is improving, my son got arrested never went back to school and for two years after being out of jail they still gave him grades after I called Mergenthaler vo-tech that’s why the principal resigned last year at the end of the school year But yet it ran my child support up in Baltimore city child support don’t want to hear this but they finally did but all the things that happened to me in between do I get my life back? Do I get the things back that I had to spend because of the lack of attention and when I say lack of attention I mean when they send a person from the no Child left behind Program and I signed a paper physical and have you on my camera and still two years later you got my son in rolled in school getting good grades why principal looks better than what she really is

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

Wait, you were supposed to pay child support while your son was in jail?

[@laglendareed8086]

That part😢

[@samanthatemple491]

im 40 yrs old and i was passed every year and i never came 50 percent of time. ATTN Hamilton Middle School,,,,Lake Clifton High School

[@horacecomegna335]

I went to Hampstead Hill Junior High School and Patterson Senior High School in Baltimore in the 70’s and 80’s and I can honestly say if I missed one day of school the principals office was blowing up my parents phone and sending nasty grams through the mail. Plus the school administrators constantly harassed any student that was absent for a hand written note from their parents and they kept their parents signature on file to match it up! 😂😂😂

[@fireball0762]

the ones that did go to school, did they even try?

[@laglendareed8086]

And why are they kept on the role, follow the dollar😢

[@philwashington3365]

Oh my God.

[@roderickwhite4590]

So why he mad?

[@jerrymylove1754]

Lol, he even pulled out the no child left behind. First time I heard someone’s not going to school and wanting tell everyone.

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

He’s not mad. The news station tracked him down to interview him on camera and get the story from his side.

[@roderickwhite4590]

I understand that but in a sense they kinda helped him out..

[@VeryOldMerc]

Some will need to be left behind for others to succeed. It's not right but it will be necessary. We don't have the resources or conviction to change students who majored in truancy.

[@fionamcfadden5772]

WHAT!..Reckless he says,Reckless!..On 1ST impressions it sounds like ur Mayor would have been one of those ghost teachers you were talking about..even a ghost student could have come across better I'm sure!..DGMW(Don't get me wrong!) he might have put a mask on as soon as that outdoor press thingy was over but he could've explained things or dealt with the matter a heck of alot better than that!..He didn't come across as the smartest dude!..

[@kennyg3192]

They need to look at Mervo, my son I left this text message the prior one about the no Child left behind who came to my home I have them on camera telling me that they need it my white son in there because my white child is my Nordie at Mergenthaler vo-tech on 3500 Hilling Rd. And I have video footage

[@dntansrqs1341]

Can these bellcurve blacks even get good grades
